Hints

==========
|
|
|
|
|kitty| has a *hints mode* to select and act on arbitrary text snippets currently
|
|
visible on the screen. For example, you can press |sc_kitten_hints|
|
|
to choose any URL visible on the screen and then open it using your system
|
|
browser.

|
URL hints mode
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you can press |sc_kitten_hints_type_path_program| to
|
|
select anything that looks like a path or filename and then insert it into the
|
|
terminal, very useful for picking files from the output of a ``git`` or ``ls`` command and
|
|
adding them to the command line for the next command.
